EnsembleIQ Names New CEO in Jennifer Litterick

Litterick, who most recently served as EnsembleIQ's chief commercial officer and president of its North American Retail Vertical, has previously held managing positions with Rogers Media (whose B2B titles EnsembleIQ acquired in 2016) as well as TIME Canada, working with brands such as TIME, Fortune and People and launched the company’s custom content division in Canada.

It’s the fourth top executive change at EnsembleIQ since the company was formed out of the merger of Stagnito Business Information, Edgell Communications and Path to Purchase Institute in 2016 under private equity firm RFE Investment Partners. Former Stagnito COO Kollin Stagnito served as CEO shortly after the initial merger of Stagnito and Edgell and was succeeded by Path to Purchase founder Peter Hoyt in 2016.

David Shanker took over as CEO in February 2018, bringing expertise from outside the publishing industry, having served as CEO of The Americas at Lightspeed, Kantar’s global digital data collection firm and as CEO of PinchMe, a digital marketing platform.

Matt Kinsman is vice president of content + programming at Connectiv, the only association focused on the integrated b-to-b model—including publications, events, digital media, marketing services and business information. Prior to joining Connectiv's predecessor American Business Media in 2011, Kinsman was executive editor of Folio:, the leading information provider for the magazine industry.
